Culture What are your thoughts on the new Jewish museum in Baghdad?
Curious what Iraqis who currently live in Iraq think about it.
I promise I'm not trying to troll, but in the hopes of satisfying my personal curiousity about the museum, I should probably add the following disclosure: Im not Iraqi and I'm not interested in debating I'm just hoping to get some thoughts that are rooted in reality. I also want to pre-empt any "We don't hate Jews, just Israel" comments. Surveys show that's not true and it's disingenuous to say that anti-Semitism isnt pervasive in Iraq, hence why I'm curious about the museum opening. I'm also not in debating the semantics of the word antisemitism.
